Thing #8: Google Drive Forms

You have all taken a Google Doc Form, and some of you have even created one, which makes this Thing really easy.  If not, you can do this in as few as 10 minutes!







Google Form is similar to Survey Monkey.
Watch this screencast I made.  By the way, you'll  see I'm working hard at NOT being a perfectionist in the video.

  It includes:

• Creating a new Form
• Tips on getting your survey out (via standard link or TinyURL)
• Viewing student responses (including hiding columns)
• Sharing spreadsheet to colleagues or students without requiring them to log into Google
• Setting notifications (you can get an email if responses are submitted--or not)
• Viewing Summary of Responses (pie charts and bar graphs)

 

Do you have a world of ideas to use Google Forms in and out of school?  Me, too.  Have fun with it, and let us know in your blog what you create!

If you are new to Google Drive, you'll find that the others are near self-explanatory.  

Document is like MS Office Word, Presentation = Power Point, Spreadsheet = Excel  Just don't forget to change your privacy settings to share so someone else can edit.

Due date: Please be done with all Things 1-8 by the end of April if you are shooting for the iPadAir prize!

We need to squeeze in the last two before June 1.  Suggestions are welcome!
